Suspension VAZ 2109 2108 21099 - about tuning, lowering and other cutting of springs.

The nine looks attractive, slightly planted. Of course, you should not lower it to such an extent that its bottom scratches the asphalt. But you can lower the rear part of the body by 5-15 centimeters, there will be no negative consequences from this. But the appearance of the car will change for the better. You can reduce the ground clearance in two ways - by installing lowering springs, or by cutting off standard springs. Which method to choose is up to you, just pay attention to the advantages and disadvantages of each.

Types of understatement

You can lower your car in the following ways:

1. Purchase special lowering springs and replace them with standard ones.
2. Trim factory springs. Having gotten rid of unnecessary turns, install it on the car.
3. Use sports suspension. During the operation, you will have to install lowered springs along with shortened sports shock absorbers.
4. Replace conventional springs with coilovers or special coil suspensions.
5. You can install coilovers with shock absorbers. They regulate the stiffness. Wheelovers are purchased with camber supports.

An analogue of the operation of cutting original springs is purchasing factory springs made specifically for such purposes. If you doubt what you can get from homemade spare parts, it’s better to buy special lowering springs.

SPRINGS FOR CAR VAZ 2109

The question of how to properly lower a front-wheel drive VAZ 2109 car is increasingly relevant among young owners of such cars. Reducing the ground clearance relative to the factory setting gives the car a low stance, thereby making it look like a sports car. Therefore, many strive to obtain such an effect and are interested in how to properly process the springs of a VAZ 2109. The most frequently asked question in this situation is: how many turns of the spring should be cut on a VAZ?

Replacing shock absorbers

Make the car fast and comfortable due to the use of special shock absorbers. Replacing this part:

• you can make an understatement of minus 70 millimeters; You will be able to increase the stability of the vehicle, especially at high speeds and turns;
• when lowered to minus 50, valve resistance increases and fuel consumption decreases;
• decided to make a lowering of minus 120 millimeters, then it is worth remembering that you will increase and improve the high-speed aerodynamics of the technical device;
• By deciding to lower the car by minus 90, you will improve the car’s handling. By lowering your car, you get the following benefits:

1. The body of the vehicle is prevented from loosening at high speeds and turns.
2. The elements of this suspension begin to work in a balanced manner.
3. The strength and rigidity of the racks increases.
4. By purchasing lowered VAZ 21099 struts, you will be sure that the car will drive safely and evenly, regardless of its speed.
5. A new type of car, which after lowering will be more fashionable and sporty.

By purchasing special parts to lower your car, you can be sure that the car will drive safer and smoother. There will be no skidding on turns, which are so dangerous for fast movement.

But how to lower the VAZ 21099?

There are many options, from the so-called garage, where a jack and an angle grinder mainly work, but there are also specialized services and spare parts designed for these purposes.

With a low landing, the VAZ acquires better directional stability, and driving becomes much better.

To increase the stiffness of their car's suspension, some owners install an anti-roll bar from 2110, which is stiffer than the ninety-nine, as well as a rear stabilizer.

Disadvantages of understatement

If you decide to perform this procedure using a technical means, it is worth remembering that there are advantages and disadvantages. Among the negative characteristics of lowering a car, the following main ones can be identified:

1. Once the car gets much lower, it becomes very difficult to tow it. It is also completely impossible to pull other cars, because if you attach a tow rope to the bumper, then it simply cannot withstand a certain load and breaks.
2. Some elements of the road can become quite a strong obstacle. So, speed bumps can cause a lowered car to hang a little on them.
3. This procedure is ideal only for smooth roads. After lowering it will be completely impossible to go out into nature: into the forest, to a pond, to a river. Even the smallest stones will become a huge obstacle to your technical equipment.
4. Very often you will hear the sound of a muffler catching on a less than perfectly level road.

Understatement is done to obtain maximum contact between the car engine and the wheels of the car. It helps the vehicle stay on the road better, especially on slippery asphalt. Appearance - very overloaded. The inclination of the wheel changes. Vehicle controllability may deteriorate. Due to lowering, tires wear out quickly. To avoid these consequences, after the procedure you need a camber set. It helps to set the correct wheel angle. You can also purchase other levers.

If you have finally decided to lower your car, then it is worth remembering that before starting work you will need to decide on the method of this procedure and only then can you proceed to work. It is also worth carefully weighing both the advantages and disadvantages of this process.

“Fucking basin. "

Hi all! My name is Mikhail, now I’ll tell you a story about how I managed to exchange my two-wheeler for a 2010 Camry. It all started with the fact that I began to be wildly irritated by the breakdowns of the two-wheeler, it seemed like nothing serious was broken, but damn it, there were so many little things that really started to irritate me. This is where the idea arose that it was time to change the car to a foreign car. The choice fell on the melting Camry of the tenth years.

Yes, I had matured morally, but financially I just couldn’t handle it. I’ll say right away that I am against loans and taking a car, especially not a new one, on credit is unreasonable. My salary is 24k a month, so collecting 600-700 thousand is almost impossible for me. I started looking for different ways to make money on the Internet. You can’t imagine how many scams there are, what I haven’t tried: sports betting, network marketing, and even the volcano casino, where I successfully lost about 10 thousand ((The only direction in which it seemed to me that I could make money was currency trading on the stock exchange, they call it Forex. But when I started delving into it, I realized that it was very difficult for me. I continued to dig further and came across binary options. The essence is the same as in Forex, but it’s much easier to understand. I started reading forums, studying trading strategies. I tried it on a demo account, then opened a real account. To be honest, I didn’t manage to start earning money right away, until I understood all the mechanics of options, I lost about 3,000 rubles, but as it turned out, it was a precious experience. Now I earn 5-7 thousand rubles a day. I managed to get the car buy after half a year, but in my opinion this is a good result, and it’s not about the car, my life has changed, I naturally quit my job, I have more free time for myself and my family. You’ll laugh, but I work directly on the phone)) If If you want to change your life like me, then here’s what I advise you to do right now: 1. Register on the site 2.

Low profile tires . If you replace the tires with lower ones, this will lower the car by some amount. The main thing is to install only those tires and wheels that are suitable for your car. (Acceptable tire and wheel sizes for VAZ size ten)

Other ways to lower your suspension

These methods of lowering the car require significantly less time and money, but experts do not recommend resorting to them.

Lowered springs . Buy lower springs and leave the shock absorbers the same. As practice has shown, this method has many disadvantages and only one advantage - budget.

Trim the springs . Those who are not going to spend money on buying lowered springs decide to saw off the coils of the springs (from 1.5 to 3 coils). The springs are trimmed with a grinder or a metal file. After the machine has fallen, the coils are cut in half so that they can be removed. Then the bumper is cut and the spring is secured with a clamp through the drilled hole.

For comparison:

1. standard suspension height of VAZ 2110
2. sawed off 1.5-2 turns of springs
3. sawed off 2.5-2.75 coils of springs

A bag of potatoes in the trunk . Jokes aside, this method was previously used by many on spring-loaded vehicles, after excessively increasing the ground clearance. When straightening springs, it is very difficult to calculate the required size. And nowadays, you can find cars where a bag of cement serves as a weight for super-fast lowering of the rear suspension. By the way, about springs...

Remove the spring leaf . Most often used on VAZ cars, where the rear suspension is leaf spring. Removing the sheets will reduce the rigidity, causing the car to lower.

Which tinting manufacturer is the best?

The clear and unconditional leader in the production of tinting films is the USA. As practice shows, high-quality films should be chosen from American brands: Llumar, Ultra Vision, SunTek, ASWF, Armolan, Johnson, 3M. This list can be expanded by the Indian company Sun Control and the Korean Nexfil, whose product quality is also excellent. The listed companies have a streamlined production process and value their name. Therefore, when purchasing, check for certificates so as not to run into a fake.

In contrast to everything, there is a Chinese tint film. Its main advantage is the price. The main drawback is everything else. Weak strength, poor sun protection and installation problems (not the easiest gluing process, creases and poor glue) are frequent companions of films from China. Recommended for use only as a temporary option due to the limited budget for car tuning.

Such a film obviously won’t add to the presentability

Choosing a method to reduce ground clearance

The easiest way is to cut 1-2 turns from a standard spring. This is done using a grinder, just cut carefully so that in the end the two springs are the same. And you need to cut it so that subsequently the edge of the spring fits into its seat and does not fall out of it when the suspension moves. To do this, you will have to sharpen the last turn with an emery wheel or grinder.

The disadvantage of this method is unreliability. Even if you adjust the edge of the spring as accurately as possible, there is still a risk that it will come out of its seat. Then you will have to remove the strut, compress the spring, and install it in place. It is good if, when unclenched, it does not damage parts of the body or suspension. But, as a rule, such sad outcomes happen extremely rarely.

But installing springs with lowering or variable pitch is the most attractive way to reduce ground clearance. The cost of lowering springs is the same as standard springs. But the advantage is obvious, since the outer turns of such springs clearly fit into the seats on the stand and the insulating gasket. Therefore, it is impossible for the spring to fall out of its seat while moving. And the car will look beautiful with such springs.

Engine

In order for a car to feel confident on the road and not be inferior to other cars at the start, it is necessary to improve its engine. Before this, it is necessary to upgrade the brake system and gearbox, only in this case you will be able to drive not only quickly, but also safely.

By tuning the VAZ 2109 engine, you can increase its volume to 1.7 liters. You shouldn’t increase it any further, as the motor will start to overheat and quickly fail.

Engine volume should not be increased by more than 1.7 liters

Refinement of the engine consists of installing the following parts:

• lightweight crankshaft;
• forged pistons coated with molybdenum disulfide;
• lightweight connecting rods;
• piston pins with tapered chamfers.

In addition, you can replace the standard cylinder head with a head from Lada Kalina. The existing engine mounts are replaced with reinforced ones and the camshaft is replaced. As a result of such modifications, the car becomes more playful and powerful. It can accelerate to 180 km/h and produces 98 hp. With. If the model is carburetor, then jets with higher throughput are installed in the first and second chambers. In injection models, a January 7.2 controller is installed to control the motor.

Carburetor tuning consists of replacing jets
